3 prediction markets price this story:

• Spain snap election called by November 30? — the market puts it at 100%, with $9k traded in the last 24 hours, closing 1 Dec 2026. A snap election must be formally called in Spain by November 30, 2026, at 11:59 PM ET for the market to resolve to Yes. This requires the official dissolution of at least one house of the Spanish Parliament or a formal scheduling of an election before the term ends. Readers often mistake the announcement date for the calling date or rely on unofficial reports instead of official government sources.
• Will Pedro Sánchez be the next Prime Minister of Spain? — the market puts it at 20%, with $13k traded in the last 24 hours, closing 1 Apr 2028. For the "Yes" outcome, Pedro Sánchez must receive a vote of confidence from the Congress of Deputies and be formally sworn in as Prime Minister by March 31, 2028, at 11:59 PM ET. The "No" outcome occurs if another individual assumes the role or if no new Prime Minister is officially confirmed by that deadline.
• Spain snap election called in 2026? — the market puts it at 100%, with $45k traded in the last 24 hours, closing 1 Jan 2027. The market resolves to Yes if Spain formally dissolves Parliament or schedules a snap election by December 31, 2026, at 11:59 PM ET. It resolves to No if this does not happen within that timeframe. Readers often mistake the news of a potential election call for the actual formal dissolution required for resolution.
